Allied Health

As experienced General Practitioners, SmartClinics Doctors are generally the first point of contact in personal health matters. At times, they may refer patients onto a Specialist or Allied Health Professional for further advice, ongoing care and support.

Allied Health Providers are healthcare professionals who are not doctors, dentists or nurses but have specialised training and education in specific health areas allowing them to diagnose and treat a range of conditions and illnesses. To provide the most comprehensive care and treatment for their patients, they often work within a multidisciplinary team or setting such as private practice, hospitals and community healthcare centres.

Our Doctors take a comprehensive approach to the diagnosis and management of illness, which is why we have a number of Allied Health Providers consulting from within our clinics. This also helps keep healthcare as convenient and affordable for patients as possible. Your SmartClinics Doctor may refer you to one of these Providers, or you may decide to book an appointment with them directly.

To find out which Allied Health Providers consult from your local SmartClinics Centre, you can search by location and specialty below.
